He still knew that Mr. Jing hadn't changed his nationality.
He instinctively took it out and flipped through it; the person in the photo was indeed the one he had already guessed.
Seeing it with my own eyes still made me shudder.
When the eye falls on the date,
He was even more stunned.
yesterday?
So suddenly?
His Adam's apple bobbed, and he quickly suppressed his doubts, leaving only worry.
Once Mr. Jing's true marital status is exposed, it will inevitably be used by those with ulterior motives to make a fuss.
But once Mr. Jing has made a decision, no one is allowed to question it.
He sighed softly and took out the remaining documents.
Several documents regarding the future development focus of the Kim family, as well as the core content to be announced at tomorrow's press conference.
A thick stack of papers,
Like a stone about to be thrown into the situation, it is enough to stir up a storm in the business world.
He took a deep breath, turned and left with the documents to arrange the upcoming press conference.
——
Chu Wuyang drank a bowl of calming soup prepared by the maid in the evening, and feeling sleepy, she went to bed early.
In the middle of the night, a rapid argument came from downstairs, as if it were pushed in by the wind of the rainy night, making her heart skip a beat.
She opened her eyes groggily; outside, the rain was heavy and damp, carrying a chilly chill.
I put on my coat and got out of bed. Just as I reached the stairwell, I saw what was happening in the foyer.
Mo Sangyu was soaked to the bone, her hair plastered to her face, and even the water from her ankles left streaks on the floor.
She was in a standoff with two bodyguards in black, her eyes filled with panic, her usual poise and composure long gone.
The moment I saw Chu Wuyang,
Mo Sangyu reached out to her hastily, as if grasping at the last straw.
"Miss Chu,"
Chu Wuyang frowned slightly and signaled to the bodyguard to release the person.
The bodyguards exchanged a glance, hesitated for a moment, and then stepped back.
She walked over, took off her clean coat, and draped it over Mo Sangyu's shoulders.
"Miss Mo, what happened?"
He helped her to sit down on the sofa in the living room and casually gave instructions to the maid who was standing by.
"Go pour me a cup of hot tea."
"Yes, madam."
The servant respectfully agreed.
The word "Madam" made Mo Sangyu's fingers tighten slightly, her eyelashes lowered, and she avoided Chu Wuyang's gaze.
Soon, the warm aroma of tea began to waft through the air.
Chu Wuyang handed the tea to her, only to find that her palms were unusually cold.
"What's wrong, Miss Mo? Why are you here in the middle of the night? Are you looking for me?"
Mo Sangyu raised her eyes, her gaze slowly sweeping over her surroundings—the photo frames on the wall, the blanket casually draped over the sofa, the magazines on the coffee table… There was no deliberate arrangement, yet everywhere revealed traces of the two people who had once lived together.
My heart tightened suddenly.
It turns out that the places that don't need any embellishment are the ones where people have nowhere to go.
Jingmin will not give her any more chances. Since it's already a done deal, there's no need for further reflection.
She withdrew her gaze, took a deep breath, and slowly explained her reasoning.
"Miss Chu, I'm here to ask you to let Sang Yun go,"
Chu Wuyang was slightly taken aback, and her brows furrowed.
"Mo Sangyun? What happened to her?"
Mo Sangyu's gaze slowly fell on her bandaged arm, a hint of apology flashing in her eyes.
"I'm sorry, I know Sang Yun offended you and even hit you."
"But could you... punish her however you like, please let Jingmin spare her life, okay?"
Chu Wuyang was stunned for a moment.
"You mean, Jingmin... doesn't want Mo Sangyun to live anymore?"
Mo Sangyu remained silent for a moment, then nodded with difficulty.
Chu Wuyang felt a slight tremor in his heart.
She still remembered Jingmin's expression during the day; it was so cold it seemed capable of freezing everything to death, so it wouldn't be surprising if he did something crazy.
She wasn't a saint, but Mo Sangyun's impulsiveness, while not causing irreversible consequences, led to her death, which seemed excessive.
She nodded gently, her tone softening.
"Miss Mo, don't worry, I'll talk to him."
A hint of gratitude welled up in Mo Sangyu's eyes.
"Thank you, Miss Chu."
She paused, as if finally making up her mind, and then continued.
"Actually... there's something else, I don't know if Jingmin has mentioned it to you, but he and I have a marriage of convenience."
Chu Wuyang's breath hitched, and her pupils contracted slightly.
"What did you say?"
Mo Sangyu looked at her, a bitter smile tugging at the corners of her lips.
"He cares about you so much, yet he's never explained such a big misunderstanding to you."
Chu Wuyang didn't interrupt, but her heart felt like it had been hit by something heavy, and she was in turmoil.
"Jingmin and I have always had a marriage of convenience,"
Mo Sangyu's voice was unhurried, tinged with a hint of weariness.
"We have never had any real relationship."
"Even those things that caused misunderstandings at the beginning weren't true, and he probably knew that too, but none of that matters anymore. What matters is... that I want to be honest with you."
She turned her head to the side, as if gathering her emotions, and then slowly said,
"You must be wondering why I was so confident yesterday, but today I'm so willing to tell you all this."
"Actually, I didn't want to either."
She gave a self-deprecating laugh.
“But Jingmin has made up his mind to cut ties with me completely, and that’s not something I can decide.”
"Because you were willing to save Sang Yun's life, I want to do something to repay you."
She paused, her voice softening.
“Sang Yun doesn’t know the true relationship between me and Jing Min. She’s young and doesn’t understand many things, so she acts impulsively… But her mistake doesn’t warrant death.”
Chu Wuyang expressed her understanding.
"I can talk to Jingmin for you, but I'm not sure if he'll listen to me."
Even the old Jing Min still had humanity, but the current Jing Min might have no bottom line when he goes crazy... Although he knows his relationship with Mo Sangyu, he definitely forced her with the intention of humiliating her from the beginning.
Mo Sangyu,
"Yes, Jingmin will definitely listen to you,"
Chu Wuyang had a question.
Have you looked for Jingmin?
Mo Sangyu closed her eyes somewhat embarrassed.
"I've looked for it,"
Not only did it not work, but she also received a warning. She had come to Chu Wuyang at the risk of being blamed.
